Acting/singing history

He started his career in the 1970s, where he gained a reputation for being the suave leading man in wuxia drama series made by TVB. Many of these are based on novels by Louis Cha and Gu Long. He often sang the theme songs of the TV dramas he starred in, such as ''The Greed of Man'', ''Cold Blood Warm Heart'' and ''Chor Lau Heung''. Many of these series are considered classics. Recently, he played a role in ''The Driving Power'', he sang the theme song in this one also.
He has a total of four daughters. The first one was from a low profile marriage that ended in divorce. He married Lydia Shum in 1985 after 14 years of courtship. They had a daughter, Joyce Cheng Yan Yee in 1987, but they divorced just eight months after she was born.^[1] In 1989, he remarried and had another two daughters.
He has continued acting in TV series by TVB today and is considered one of the most enduringly popular actors of the company.
